We flew Southwest airlines from Dallas into New Orleans. We had a great time on the plane; it was such a short flight and the pilot was hilarious! We jumped in a cab and went straight to the W Hotel in the French Quarter. The minute we walked through the beautiful lobby doors we were greeted with warm friendly smiles.  {W Hotel Lobby} We were given cocktails coupons to use at SoBo their restaurant and bar. Then we took the elevator up to our room. {Beautifully Designed Room at the W French Quarter} We loved the design and the beds were amazing! Our windows opened up to beautiful pool and courtyard views. Next we headed to headed over to the notorious Pat O’Briens for a quick snack and of course a hurricane.  {Barbara & Emily enjoying the famous Hurricane} {The patio here is one of the best – great for people watching too!} {Great hurricane recipe!} We ended the night on Bourbon street with some Karaoke at the famous Cats Meow. {Good times at Cats Meow – Stephen and I signing “We Are Young”}
